Will Xabi Alonso and Vinicius Jr manage to put the pieces back together? Furious at his coach's choice to take him out during the Clasico won against FC Barcelona (2-1), the Brazilian striker from Real Madrid went straight to the Merengue locker room, before returning and sulking on the sidelines. Since then, the Spanish press has been trying to find out more about this event and the possible consequences. On the club side, no sanctions have been announced.
The Merengues' choice is clear: even if their number 7 gave a very bad image to the club, it is a problem between the Auriverde international and his coach. Madrid will let Alonso dictate his law, without intervening. At Vinicius, patience with the former midfielder would be exhausted and some media even assured that the divorce was recorded between the two men after new revelations about their spicy verbal exchange when the Madrid number 7 left the field.
“If he doesn't come back, he will play very little»

Tell him clearly: he will play very little if he doesn't come back'”.
The staff member did so and found an beside himself Vinicius Jr in the locker room. The Brazilian then reportedly replied several times that he would not return, despite repeated requests from this staff member, who also asked him to do so for his teammates. It was only after the third threat that the player finally swallowed his resentment to return to the sidelines. “Alonso is disappointed, but not angry. And it's a feeling that can last longer.”concluded the speaker. Continued in the next episode.
